This kinda feeds off of the "You Know you're a BA equestrian when.." thread but this is different! Tell me about those times you have in life where you think.."Only a horse person would understand!"
I'll start:) This morning, I grabbed a coat before heading out the door and after I arrived at school and headed into the building, I shoved my hands in my pockets in realized I had an empty tube of dewormer in my pocket! Oopsies:) I prayed it wouldn't accidently fall out for the rest of the day!

-when you are hiking around and all you can think is "I would love to ride this area...plus I can go faster"
-when you are driving somewhere and pick out trails that you know you and your horse could totally own and then daydream of riding them
-when you can't wait for warm weather because it means more horse time
-when day light savings time comes around and you are happy because it means more horse time and everyone looks at you like you're nuts because you actually lost an hour of sleep

Haha yeah, you know you're a horse woman/man when you get excited and immediately strike up a conversation whenever you see anyone wearing horse stuff...and go out of your way just to talk to them :lol:.

you know you have been riding to often when you are in a car or behind people and the car/ person in front is going to slow and your hand mimics the tapping of a whip on the horses shoulder thinking that you and the other person will go faster :oops:

Haha! Today I was talking to my sister about her car as I was driving it... "It feels a little weird... Just isn't picking up speed... Isn't responding..." etc etc. Then I paused mid sentence after glancing at her and seeing a blank look on her face, and realized I was talking about it like it was a horse! LOL! That's what I get for taking a riding lesson today. It felt so good to be back on a horse!

You know you're a horse person when you see nothing wrong with sharing a slobber-covered apple with your horse!~


I am always mentally converting properties into more horse-friendly places.
"Oh, and arena could go there, on that flat spot. The barn would fit nicely there near the house. And some beautiful white-board fencing to frame the driveway. That still leaves plenty of pasture space..." All the time.

And does anyone else do this: When you're in a car/bus/ect., you look out the window and pretend your out there riding a horse, following the vehicle and jumping ditches and fences and cars and stuff? I do that all the time. It's actually very entertaining!

Another one:

When you see PERFECT property sitting with all the expensive, beautiful horse-appropriate fencing and see NO horses or livestock at all, and it stays that way for as long as the people live there :(
